A Worker's Economist

John R. Commons is one of the few reformers of the past century whose major works are still actively read, whose ideas are still debated, and whose principles are still applied to the analysis of contemporary problems.

John Dennis Chasse is professor emeritus of economics at State University of New York College at Brockport. He has been writing articles about John R. Commons since 1987.
